Commercial Description:
ACME CALIFORNIA BROWN ALE is creamy smooth after the style made famous in the north of England. It's toasty with hints of cherry and black currant. Acme Brown is brewed according to tradition with high dried and brown malt, and lightly finished with the Noble hops Tettnang and Hallertauer. The result is a very drinkable beer that can be enjoyed for an entire evening.

Dark amber colored with cloudy appearance. Medium sized light brown head. Toffee and caramel in aroma with some plums, berries and dried fruits. Medium bodied. Flavor is more nutty and chocolaty with slightly watery palate. Aftertaste dries with lemon and hops, some nuts also here.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy brown with a creamy and slowly diminishing light tan head. Loads of malt and overripe fruity notes. Caramel malt towards toffee flavoured. Showing a light overripe fruit note. Bitterness from the hops is slowly showing through the dense malt flavours. Light bitterness into the finish.

Bottle. Average light creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Fair display of lacework. Light cloudy amber color. The base of this brew is mainly malty notes with a good portion of hops to go with it. Light nutty and toasted malt, caramel, hint of fruit and yeast. Then comes light floral and hint of pine from the hops. Medium bodied with a soft carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated sweet with good counter bitterness. Light bitter floral accent. Quit nice.

Pours a hazy brown with a small off-white diminishing head. Very sweet with a light acidic hint and a slight bitterness. Very malty with aromas of grain, molasses, straw and cereals. Rather bready. Medium to full bodied and slightly oily mouthfeel. Soft carbonation. Long sweet finish.
